Tambuti Lodge

Douglas and all of the staff are the ultimate hosts. Friendly and helpful always greeting with a smile. Nothing was too much trouble. Chef Edith and Chef BK ensured an outstanding fine dining experience. Absolutely recommend. Will return!

A stunning safari at a great lodge. The staff especially Marcia, Martin, Edith made our stay a very very memorable one. The food and service were 5 star. The game drives led by Martin were exceptional. His skill and knowledge as well as his professionalism were superb. Would highly recommend this safari experience.

The friendliness and service of the staff was excellent. Marcia was a marvellous host from when she and some of the staff met us on arrival and really appreciated the way she met us with refreshing towels when we returned from each game drive. Our room was very spacious and airy and I liked the outdoor shower very much. The chefs produced delicious meals. Sitting around the fire pit in the evenings and having the pool to cool off in were great. Martin was an excellent and incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. And due to his efforts I saw all of the Big 5 in just 3 days. Thank you to them all for a 5 star experience.

Our experience at Tambuti has been perfect. Unfortunately we only had time to stay for 2 nights, I would recommend staying at least 3 nights. The lodge and rooms are set up and maintained to the highest standard. The food was perfect as we’ll, chef Edith spoiled us with all lovely food imaginable. We also had a memorable private dinner under the starry sky on our terrace. Check-in and welcome to the lodge was very personal and clear. It was very much appreciated and thoughtful that the evening game drive (16:30) waited for us to arrive, so we would not miss out. Game drives (morning and afternoon) were perfectly organized and our guide was great (thank you Sean). Ofcourse there is no guarantee on what animals you will spot, but all efforts are taken to provide the best experience when in black rhino or pilanesberg. Unfortunately we missed the illusive leopards, so we’ll have to come back for that.

The best experience ever in every aspect. ALL staff were fantastic, the accommodation amazing, food to die for and safaris exciting, interesting and informative. We can’t recommend this safari and lodge more and thank everyone for making us feel so welcome. Hopefully see you again very soon

We went to Tambuti Lodge as a part of our bit 30th Wedding Anniversary celebration trip and we are so glad we did. The lodge and its staff are top quality - their service is exceptional. We couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff made us feel so welcome and went out of their way to ensure we had the best experience. They accommodated us when we arrived early and even prepared a very special in-room dinner for our anniversary celebration (thank you Chef Edith and team for making our last nigh so special). The food is outstanding and the room was so comfortable. Our guides were extremely knowledgeable and patient. We were able to see four of the big five (leopards are so difficult to find) and learned so much about the area. So many wonderful experiences out in our small group safari. Much of the time we were either the first on scene to see some of the most amazing things or we were the only ones in the area to do some very intimate viewing of the animals. If you are planning a safari visit to Pilanesberg, South Africa you cannot do better than Tambuti Lodge. They exceeded all of our expectations.
